Judge by the Smell—Your Nose Knows Ten different men —or ten different advertise , ments- —will tell you that ten different tobaccos are the best on earth. Your nose will tell you one tobacco is the best And your nose knows. Make this simple test Rub some TUXEDO briskly between your palms until the heat and friction bring out the full aroma, and smell it Test every other tobacco you can get hold of in the same way. Give them all a fair, square test l| , l| - Tfr Your nose will say, "Oh, what a difference." Your nose will tell you that TUXEDO is packed full of that delightful fragrance that must mean supreme flavor and mildness. Your nose will tell you that the other tobaccos don't meet the test—that they fall down hard. Your pipe will back up what your nose says, TUXEDO is as good as it smells. That's saying a whole lot—but the proof is wait ing for you.
